Offering my sincerest condolences for your loss. I connected with Martha as a student and then as a volunteer. We had so many wonderful conversations and she always shared how proud she was of her family. I am so glad to have connected with her and will miss her dearly.

My condolences on your loss. I have been a friend of Martha's for years and years and years (80 years!). We were in high school together. She was also a good friend of my sister Betty. We visited a lot over the years and were still in touch recently. She was a special friend; she was very creative and had a great sense of humour. I will miss her.
